I absolutely loved my tour with puffin travel, Gulla and Villi. Villi took me to places that were off the beaten path and extremely beautiful. As I was traveling alone I felt safe and I felt like I was traveling with a trusted member of my family. I will never forget the care and kindness of Villi and Gulla. I highly recommend taking this adventure and can not wait to go back!!

"Do It Like The Locals" is a blast!

Bethany_P, Jan 2023

We had so much fun on our daytrip with Gulla where we "did it like the locals"! After having done the Golden Circle with all the tourists, it was amazing to be driven around to some amazing spots in a private vehicle. She took our list of interests and arranged a thoughtful itinerary that filled our (very brief) daylight hours. It was like being hosted by an old family friend!

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Thank dear Bethany It was a fabulous day and I agree it felt like a family reunion. Cold and bright day. Our best to all of you and we hope to see you again here in Iceland greetings Gulla and Villi

Great Customer Service!

Kimberly_J, Jul 2022

Villi was very informative and friendly! He was very attentive to our groups needs and had many options for us to choose from. Tour vehicle very clean and well maintained. Tour was fun and informative and any questions we had prior to tour were answered promptly.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you Kimberley Villi sends his regards - thank you for your kind words. Hope you liked the other places you visited on your cruise. Best regards Gulla and Villi - the Puffins

I found the best tour guide!!!

Ethan_D, May 2022

Gulla’s choice is the best choice for a private personalized tour experience. I booked tours with her 3 times now and this last time was just as amazing as the other two. Not only did we see popular tourist places many would love to visit but we also got to see some unique places that are still just as amazing but less known and better to experience without the hustle and bustle of tons tourists. She's the best there is. I highly recommend this tour and I would not hesitate to book another tour in the future.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you Ethan - it was an honor to meet you and your mother and I loved our tours. all our best and greetings to you all Gulla and Villi

Tour of a lifetime

Thank you Kristin Happy new year - we hope that we will see you again in Iceland. warm greetings Gulla and Villi

Great day; great tour; great company!

Hal_T, Jul 2021

We cannot say enough about the enjoyment we had on the “Gulla’s Choice” tour and give it 5 stars only because we’re not allowed to give it more! We’d seen quite a bit in our brief stay in the country and wanted “something different” and…we got it! We were guided about by Villy, who has a great humor to him and knew a lot about where and what we saw. Small hints from him as we entered some sites were invaluable; without his suggestion, we would have missed the Wishing Well at the UNESCO site! He was great fun to spend a day with and flexible and creative about our destinations. Not only did we have a day that was filled with amazing sights of amazing sites, we really felt like Villy was looking to make the most of the day (including some unscheduled stops that we asked for). It was worth every króna! We highly recommend Puffin Travel and look forward to using them again on our next trip here.

Thank you. Villi is the best greetings Puffin Travel

Toller Ausflug Richtung Süden

Gerald_B, Jul 2023

Wir machten einen Ausflug Richtung Süden mit tollen Eindrücken und nettem Fahrer, die Erklärungen hätten laut meinen Mitreisenden etwas mehr sein können.
